Key Takeaways
Workflows automate tasks natively within Glide
The workflows use four types of triggers: Scheduled, Email, Webhook and App Interaction
Workflows can be used for various purposes such as compiling performance metrics, generating emails, and optimizing operational efficiency
Simple practices, such as renaming actions, can significantly improve the understanding and readability of Workflows
Document your Workflows before you build, and continue maintaining that documentation so team members understand how your Workflows were developed
AI-generated output requires clear instructions and detailed context for precise and comprehensive results
You can chain Workflows together, e.g. by using the Send Email action to trigger an Email workflow, or using the Call API action to interact with the Glide Tables API
Workflows can interact with non-Glide APIs and handle JSON data from webhooks, serving as a versatile alternative to other platforms
Data passed by the Email and Webhook triggers can be used immediately within a Workflow, without having to store the results in a data source first; this is helpful for minimizing data bloat
